Editorial Review for Bob's Steak and Chop House – by Gina Goff
The Scene
Power-brokering businessmen and tourists with money to burn watch the cable car roll by the large windows in this sophisticated steakhouse's main dining room. Vintage black and white prints of San Francisco adorn mahogany walls with dark green, red and brown accents. Diners seeking quiet conversation opt for a private booth in one of the two alcoves to the left of the entrance.
The Food
Skillful servers promptly deliver an extensive, cabernet-heavy wine list and a warm sourdough loaf. An impeccably fresh crab cake starter, drizzled with a sweet mustard sauce, is a menu star. Meat lovers agonize over entree choices, like prime aged filet mignon and a rack of lamb with flamed exterior and a rosy, succulent center; each dish is garnished with a whole glazed carrot. Red meats are best accompanied by creamy smashed potatoes with chives; assorted toppings are offered tableside. Perfectly torched creme brulee is the ultimate finale.

The food was very good. I had the Chop Salad and Filet, but everyone in my party enjoyed what they ordered. We were not very pleased with the service though. At first they were very responsive but after we received our food we literally had to waive our hands in the air and grab just anyone walking by to get the butter and sour cream for our plain potatoe(they walk around with a tray of butter sour cream and chives instead of putting it on your plate automatically), refill of our drinks and even had to wait forever just to get our ticket. We had a group of 10 but the entire restaurant only seats approximately 75. The desserts are large enough to share among 2-4 people. I highly recommend the brownie sundae.

I've been here a few times and it's high on my charts for ambiance and style. This is a nice restaurant and a good place to meet friends for a cocktail. Last night I met a friend for cocktails and an appetizer (calamari- very tasty) and was highly satisfied with the evening. It's a good place for locals and business travelers and out of town guests. Good crowd and we were fortunate to find seats
